Title: Richtersveld
Post by: Martin Kristiansen on January 10, 2019, 01:05:21 pm

A very dry area in the north west of South Africa. Don't go in summer, I did once. Hire a 4X4.

Nice shot!

I have to admit that this place is high on my bucket list - I have an irresistible attraction to true wilderness areas and the Richtersveld really qualifies! Not too far from the Kalahari Transfrontier Park either!

Yes very close Tony. If you do ever come out get in contact. I know good ways to set that up. Might even join you if you are up for that

Yes! The disappearing road makes the image.

Lovely Martin, I can sense the dryness and heat.

I have family in the Kalahari and me and the Blonde decided last week that a two week trip there will be on the cards for next year. Camping on a red sand dune under the stars that one can read under at night.
